Full of Hope

Full of hope, we show our new toy creations to people who work for our partner toy companies here in the US, in the UK, Europe, Japan, and all over the world. Then we lovingly box and ship them out to their destinations for review, often under tight deadlines. The samples sometimes arrive just in time to make a last-minute presentation meeting.

All of this shipping of precious material is not without mishap, I might add. The samples can arrive broken. Our clients return the sample to us, and we find that the metal shipping case has been crushed from some heavy impact. We race to do the repair and ship it back out the same day, only to have another problem arise. Not enough time! Crap . . . we won't make our shipping deadline even if we race to the airport to make the last flight out . . .
